In the last hours I have been struggling to implement the map and gameplay system. Turns out it took a lot longer than expected, partly because sprite.js is not as mature\/complete as I thought it would be and because of my own lack of practice.<\/p>\n
However I think I have done something worth showing\/talking. First I did a python script that would parse a txt file and output a PNG containing a wire frame to design the level from. The same text file is used as input by the game to generate the collision platforms. I also needed to implement basic physics, which still have some rough edges but it will have to suffice for now.<\/p>\n
The current prototype is accessible through here<\/a>.<\/p>\n I think I will leave the gameplay engine for now and move on to game rules and visual stuff. What do you think?<\/p>","time":"December 18th, 2010 8:08 pm","title":"Finally, getting somewhere"}
